BIGFOOT #10 is the product of more than 700 hours of computer design work, done by Bob Chandler. It was the next step in truck design after BIGFOOT #8 and #9. The engine was placed behind the driver, and a redesigned suspension allowed for almost 30 inches of suspension travel. The truck debuted at the St. Louis Arena on January 31, 1992. BIGFOOT #10 captured the 1992 World Championship of Monster Truck Racing in the Special Events Penda Points Series. In 1993, #10 took 2nd Place in the points series behind BIGFOOT #11. In 1999, it captured the Checkered Flag Point Championship. Today, Rodney Tweedy is doing the driving duties and is currently touring the US. |
